Is a Jack in a Box smoothie healthy?

Question

I just had one and it was very sweet. I can't imagine how it could be made with natural ingredients. Anybody know?

Answer 1

Nothing at any fast food place is going to be healthy.  It may be healthier than the other stuff they serve but it is not healthy.

Answer 2

Only if you wash it down with a Sourdough Jack.

Answer 3

I watched them make my Strawberry Banana smoothie this morning and instead of strawberries, they used strawberry juice from a box. It's practically flavored ice I'm drinking. Disappointing.

Answer 6

no. if a smoothie has anymore than 200 calories in a 20 oz. it's not good for you. smoothies should be made from real fruit. if it tastes sweeter than the fruit itself, it's immitation. i don't understand how places that sell smoothies using fruit juices and concentrates get away with calling their product a smoothie! it should be called Kool-Aid with crushed ice.
